So we had a lil bit of rain. My passenger side hi-beam is 1/2 full of water!!..
 Removing bumper is NOT going to happen!! SO-- Can I drill a small hole for it to empty out then smear silicone over it to seal it, then peel it off if //when it happens again?..  I CAN use just the lows but it was great having hi's out on the country roads we drive to & from work making it way easier to see road verman & deer..  Yup I did a search & wish it were only condensation, but I am definitely NOT pulling the bumper cover!! I don't have the time to have it layed up again when I break stuff pulling it off!!!! !!!ALWAYS HAPPENS TO BE MY LUCK!!!..

I bought my 96 celica with water in the drive side high beam head light. The bulb was busted out and the bulb harness was not plugged back into the headlight assemble and that is how water had gotten in. I don't know how long the car sat like that because the water had turned yellow and rusty. My entire headlight is yellow from inside. I just heated up an old pointy screwdriver and drilled a hole in it from the bottom. All the water drained out and haven't had the water problem again aside from the headlight looking ugly.
